DYK part 2/??? :

- I +2ed twice in round 1 of 3x3?
- One of those +2s was a T-perm U2 that I totally deserved for tormenting Mats about his?
- Fitting 9 people into a 4 man suite is very doable?
- Kevin bought 3 cases of Mountain Dew the first day because it was cheaper than 2 cases?

I imagine this discussion starts with those shouting "USA" immediately after Feliks' fifth solve. That was uncalled for.

I freely admit that I was a part of this. However, I think some people have gotten the wrong impression of it - nobody was trying to disrespect Feliks - we're all faz fanboys. But we had been keeping track of the times during the finals, and knew that he needed a sub8 on the last solve to beat Collin. The chanting was out of pride for Collin, and excitement that an American won US nationals for once. In hindsight it could seem a bit rude, but I assure you there were no negative intentions.
